About Me
I am 41, I was raised in the Boston area, and I have been in IT and tech support doing this kind of work for over 15 years based in Brookline. Also I do creative work like videography, audio, photography and websites. now using the latest technologies like generative AI in areas like photo video and audio as well as traditional techniques. I have worked in moderate sized IT departments previously as well as worked privately by contract short term and longterm. See the Customer Testimonials Page for reviews and testimonials about my services. If you want to speak to a reference, reach out to me directly to me on the Contact Page and I will provide you with their contact info.
My rates are affordable and by the job - no lower than $60, but no more than $200 for most services and situations. The average job is between $100 and $140 for a multiple hour appointment. Generally customers are satisfied after one appointment. If ongoing help is needed after an appointment it is offered generally free for simple requests and questions as a follow up to an appointment, and if you have basic questions please see the Contact Page, I am happy to help free for anything simple.
I base my rates partially on an hourly rate in this business environment and on the nature of what is being asked for on each job and my costs and my rates are cheaper than most competitors in my feild. Longer term and multiple appointment jobs can be negotiated over time at a different but similarly affordable rate. Things like dealing with large many terabyte data recovery and file management might be an example of a longterm larger job or building a website or other creative endeavor or similar large projects that require not just action but planning and promotion. Pease see the Services Page and I think you will see I can do most anything you ask.
I also guarantee all my work for you. If I don’t fix your issue in some way and it isn’t properly resolved and improved upon then I charge nothing for my labor. I am mindful and try to contain all costs whether it’s my labor or the customers expenses related to the job, I am always mindful of my clients’ budgets and I don’t give recommendations that are unrealistic or have those expectations of a client similarly. I accept CashApp, Venmo, PayPal, Apple Pay, and by check or cash.
